People who say "In real life Arnab is not the horrendous human being / vermin he appears to be on his shows", do you realize that this makes it worse? If he had been vile in and out, there wasn't much to say. That he CHOOSES to be evil to make money makes him an abomination.

This is Madeleine Kolab. 31 years old, mother of 4 and a fifth on the way, the only female fisherwoman in the Gaza Strip. A fisherwoman since the age of 13, and it’s after her the flotilla is named. Credit: עדי ארגוב عدي أرجوف Adi Argov

Mostly forgotten 😔, as is the way of the world. 7 years ago, on the 8th of June #AnthonyBourdain left us a little poorer as his compassion, curiosity and respect for cuisines of the world was rare. A remembrance for a wonderful artist and a good man (despite the bad boy image)

BBC reports that 82 people were killed in the stampedes in the Mahakumbh. The most probably sanghi response is: A: Abuse BBC, call them colonial B: Ignore and/or distract C: Claim they all achieved Moksha D: Point to stampedes during Haj or in Opposition ruled times/ States.

And scientists claim that there is no such thing as a perpetual motion machine. Bah! What do they know? They should ask the consultants with MBAs.

Wtf? Why are children going for honeymoon anyway? Isn't child marriage illegal? Bonus qs: If people in their 50s are getting married: 1. Do they have to take permission of parents? What if their parents have passed? 2. Can they go for a honeymoon trip far away from their home?

People in Southern and Western States of India should start speaking more kindly about politicians of Northern States. After delimitation, they are going to be controlling everything in India anyway.

This series has been a true eye opener. Thanks a lot anita anand and William Dalrymple. It leaves me wondering - which carving up has had a bigger impact on the world; the Scramble for Africa chaired by Bismark or the Yalta (Teheran earlier) conference hosted by Stalin.

We Indians are a terrible, horrible peoples. The moment there's a snafu or a tragedy we rush in to: 1. Blame reservations. 2. Find a hindu phobia (if such a thing even exists) angle. What we DO NOT DO AT ALL, is demand accountability from those governing.
